An Odd Win: Calgary 5 – Minnesota 2

Did you notice? There was a Flames game this afternoon. More people in Minnesota were probably watching the game than Calgary given the Grey Cup was on at the same time. If people were watching they may have been moderately entertained by the Flames concluding road...

Running out of words like pathetic: flames lose again

Welcome to the Young Gun Years! Looks like Flames fans are now faced with the inevitable, a solid 5 years of hardship with players fat off of million dollar paycheques they don't deserve coasting through a season. Fans like me love the Calgary Flames. We hate this...

Brain Cramped Flames Drop Yet Another: Calgary 3 – Detroit 5

You give Detroit an inch and they'll score repeatedly. Calgary relied too heavily on huge Kipper saves, and were the in the penalty box too often against a Detroit team that actually knows how to work a powerplay. Result? A loss. It doesn't help that the referees have...

Embarrassment. Calgary 1 – Columbus 4

There are only so many words in the thesaurus for disgrace and we've used them all barely a third of the way through the NHL season. The Columbus Blue Jackets now have 5 wins. That's five wins total for the entire season up to and including tonight's game. The Jackets...

Back on Track 2.0? Flames 5 – Blackhawks 2

It was this time last year, against the Chicago Blawkhawks no less, when the Flames pulled out of a losing funk in a big way. Tonight, the Flames faced the league's best in an attempt to right a sinking ship. Teams rarely make it to the playoffs if they don't sit in a...

Pull the Trigger Feaster: Calgary 1 – Chicago 4

This team is done. Pull the trigger Feaster, this Calgary Flames squad is WORSE than last year's team. Even though it looks the same, it's been sunk into oblivion by DARRYL SUTTER and we're paying a hefty price today. Feaster admittedly tried to shake things up...

Another Abysmal Performance: Calgary 0 – Minnesota 2

Outshooting and outworking the opposition is meaningless if you keep losing game in and game out. The Calgary Flames, in true pathetic on-again off-again fashion, stank out the 'Dome laying another egg. Despite having the most shots, most chances, and most powerplay...

Back on Track? calgary 2 – colorado 1

After hanging out their backup goalie out to dry in Buffalo, the Flames took four of a possible six points on their brief three game road-trip. Tonight vs. Colorado Calgary held on for a win, but my gawd this team plays exceptionally boring and uninspiring hockey. I...

Iggy Flash Puts Flames on Track: Calgary 4 – Detroit 1

It wasn't pretty but Calgary managed to hold the Detroit Red Wings off long enough to pot two points and get back to .500 on the season. After a 5-1 debacle against Vancouver, the Flames embarked on a road-swing that began tonight. Detroit, for their part, are having...

Pathetic. Calgary Disgraced at Home

What a way to end a homestand, forget to show up. The league's second oldest team not only looks slow and pathetic, but they lack complete desire and heart. I didn't even wait for the final score. I shut it off by the second period. This team is done. They're WORSE...

Flames Win Dud: Calgary 3 – St Louis 1

Not sure anybody saw this game given the World Series of Baseball took place at the same time as the hockey game. Probably a good thing since it was boring. Calgary in the least strung together their first back to back wins of the season, just did it by putting all...

Not bad. Calgary 4 – Colorado 2

The Calgary Flames picked up a much needed win in game three of their 6 game homestand. Their third win of the season was a result of a solid first period and timely goaltending late in the third. Coming into the game the Avs were unbeaten on the road, whereas Calgary...
